"Ever since Origen designated the first-century canonical writings the "New Testament"
many Christians have commonly assumed [erroneously] a direct relationship
between the church and the new covenant of Jeremiah 31:31-34."

Dr. John R. Master, The New Covenant, ISSUES IN DISPENSATIONALISM, 1994, Moody Press.

Are Christians Under Any "New Covenant"?

The subject of Israel's New Covenant, and the erroneous notion of its relationship to the New Creation Christian and the Body of Christ--the Church, remains a hot topics in dispensational circles. Like the doctrine of the Fall, the subject of the "New Covenant" is a 'watershed' issue in both Christendom and among truly born-again Christians.

Slowly, growing believers are awakening to the serious negative consequences of believing that the Church is the direct, or even indirect, beneficiary of any of God's blessing via Israel's New Covenant. The Church is the primary beneficiary of the Everlasting Covenant!

Miles J. Stanford wrote several articles on the subject since it was and remains a corollary for his dealing with the rise of Neo or Progressive dispensationalism. A sweep of withChrist.org, using our search engine, will locate several related references to the "New Covenant". However for convenience, we have listed below all the MJS polemics papers brought online to date that deal with this critical issue. We will continue to add to these as time permits and need demands.
